just at present while the natural gas

people are sinking their money INTO useless
holes, or tying IL up in fancy figured real
estate IN some gaS-producng town. the
following brief interview with a gentleman
lust from PittSburE may dampen the spirits
OF soma:
"iurre is no doubt, said the gentleman in
question. but that the gas supply of Pitt
burg is failing The citizens of the place
are very frank about il. and admit that such
is undoubtedly the case. The only ones
who dispute the statement are the owners

people of the place, satisfied that il is only
question of time when the natural gas
reservoirs in the earth will he exhausted
are interesting themselves in a new method
of manufacturing gas. which Is said 10 be-
but little more expensive than the natural

Ii is quite possible that there Is a great

Strenuous Efforts to Extirpate the New and
Fatal Horse Disease.


Strenuous Efforts to Extirpate the New and
Fatal Horse Disease.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
BLOOMINGTON. June 3-Assistant State
Veterinary Surgeon Williams, of this city, who
has of late been investigating the strange horse
disease in the vicinity of Wapella Dewitt county,
for the State commissioners, reports that two
imported stations have died from it, that ten
more ars very seriously affected, of which some
will die; thirty four mares are already dead from
the disease. and half as many more are practi-
caly worthless; still others slightly affected
The affected stations. far as known, are quar-
ant,ned; also, many of the affected and exposed
mares and the quarantine will continue until all
animals likely to transmit the disease will be in
cuded. Some of the mares have been sold OUT
of the neighborhood and others have been bred
to neighborpg stations, rendering the work of
extirpation difficult: but the Live-stock Comm1s-
sioners hope that by the cooperation of horse
owners they will be able to stop, for the present
the breeding of all exposed animals. and as the
disease is transmitted only by breeding, it is
hoped that the ravages of the disease will be
stayed. II was first observed ABOUT year and
a half ago. but for long time its serious nature
were not understood. Millions of dollars are in
of them in central Illinois, and the prevalence
of the disease is extremely alarming, and, in a
general way, the more so because hundreds of
carloads of horses shipped from this region
every year to all the great cities Of the United
States.

A Summer Parlor.

Boston Record.
A summer parlor may be made an ideal Of
coolness and lightness. and charm. Here is a
picture of a real one On the floor is mating
cut from of the new dark blue and yellow
rolls which makes every body who looks in at the
window say: How pretty mattings are nova
days!" The mating is of good quality. 1t
never pays to get cheap mating for floor
that is to be much walked over although it may
do for a ess-frequented part of the house.
The window doors which open out upon a
piazza looking toward the sea are hung with thin
curtains of the new cream Madras, with fine
stripes of pale blue. Near one of the windows
is a big, comfortable couch. It is not light
and fragile sofa, but old fashioned couch, with
the back high at one end and low the rest of the
way. 1t has very good spring and a thin but
soft cushion. and is covered all over with a buff
and blue chintz.
It is an ideal place to dream away a summer
afternoon with paper-covered story. How
warm and uncomfortable it would be to have
summer books bound in leather. even il there
was no question OF economy. The pillows
this summer sofa are covered with white null
over blue siiesia. The null slips may be washed
often and trimmed with ribbon bows when
first done up" The blue and yellow tints
not repeated further in the room, except in the
rattan chairs and oak tables. and the blue silk
scarf thrown over tiny book-rack the wall
opposite the piazza.
There are three rattan rockers; two cush-
toned in red and the other in pale olive There
is q dark crimson drapery of a Chinese silk in
front of the doorway which opens into the din
ing-room, and it is little odd. but worth not
ing that none of the cloth bound books in the
room, not those the blue scarf. of
any color but red. There is not a fan
peacock feather in the room, yet with the half
dozen odd cane and wicker chairs and the little
wicker footstools wound and bound with red
ribbon, there is a Japanese lavishness OF color
in the room that is extremely taking to those
who like bright color even in summer parlor

The Coke Strike Illegal.

PITTsBURG, June 3-The members of the
Knights OF Labor executive board who have been
investigating the strike in the coke regions
have forwarded their report to the general board.
They find that the strike is illegal, and recon-
mend that the members of the Knights Of Labor
return to work, and also sustain the umpire in
his award. They say the representatives of the
workmen themselves presented the case in such
a way as to warrant the umpire in arriving at
the decision. They make peremptory order
Dor must abide by the decision and wait until
some future conference to secure the advance in
wages to which they justly entitled. The
trouble is attributed to the fact that there
two distinct organizations in the regions, and
that concert of action is almost possible. It
is believed that the Knights of Labor men will
